Mr. Popper's Penguins


NOTE:  only saw this movie because of the penguins

RATING:  6.5/10


The GOOD:
     - PENGUINS!!! SO CUTE


     - Jim Carrey = instant LOL
     - The Murder She Wrote Lady ... aka Angela Lansbury
     - Penguins, Lovey was my favorite
     - Best Apartment ever!
     - Thomas Popper Sr. Awe *hugs*
     - The "P" Problem


The BAD:
     - Over dramatic kids
     - really cheesy bad guys
     - Jim Carrey goes insane!

     - Random bipolar old men
     - The "P" problem
     - Numb3rs guy gone creepy ass neighbor
     - Cheesey main character's relationship



The Penguins:

     Stinky

     Captain

     Loudy

     Bitey

     Lovey

     Nimrod



The relationship between Thomas Popper Sr. and Jr. is so cute.  Sr. travels everywhere around the world but always 'calls' home.  "Bald Eagle to Tippy Toes".  However the relationship between Jr. and his ex is lame, it was very obvious at the beginning that they were going to get back together.
The bad guy character could have done with a bit more work.  He seemed way too fake.  The first time you see him you don't believe that he is actually with the zoo because he was being all sketchy and calling an unknown person.  Then he turns out to be some random zoo guy who is an idiot.

     The "P" Problem
At the first I wasn't too sure what this was all about... then I got it.  It was cool but then it was so annoying it took a bit away from the movie.  The ending was funny though.  P meets Q = love and really bad wording.

and I do apologize for the overness of the penguins.
